Grossman was notorious for being a mental midget. His confidence derailed his career more than injuries ever did.

It was Atlanta's head coach who forced the trade of Favre.

Not gonna lie. I thought we had something in Rex for a minute in 2006. Those first five games might have been the best QB play in a Bears uniform in all of the 2000's.

In like 5 games, not a whole season clearly... The Cards showed us otherwise, in a win.

I said, Dennis Green had the Bears offense figured out. the Panthers did too in the 2005 season playoffs. Green provided the blueprint for how to rattle Grossman. he had that game won, and the kicker blew a chip shot field goal to lose the game. I would've been fucking mad too. rofl
Grossman literally had a 50/50 split of games he played good and bad. and he was dogshit in the NFC championship and Super Bowl games, I don't give a fuck what bearmick thinks (despite me valuing his opinions on anything else)

The excitement with rex was nowhere near as high on draft day
We didn’t freak out for him until that game he came in during the 3rd quarter and immediately threw a 20 yard laser (against the falcons maybe?)
It wast the nicest throw bears fans had seen in 10 years
And then that first 4 game run of 06... Hooo boy

Umm, if I remember right, Grossman had a great NFC title game... I'll look it up.

Nope, you are right under 50 percent passing, it was just a blowout.

yeah, he like completed 10 passes rofl. I have that game saved from years ago before you could just find them on youtube. the defense just massacred Brees in the snow. if Tommie Harris and Mike Brown were in the Super Bowl I'm sure things would've turned out differently. or if Turner didn't abandon the run after worthless Benson fumbled and got knocked out of the game. like Benson was the fucking difference maker, fuck you.

I remember in that superbowl, Peyton just murdering the cover 2 defense in the Middle Urlacher was playing too soft in the middle and they hoped they would tighten up in the redzone. He was just hit James up the middle and it would lead to more than 5 years most plays. Problem too is that team had no shortage of weapons. I feel that tactic would work on a team that maybe have 2 or 3 weapons to rely on. But the Colts team was stacked with players on offense hungry for that first ring, including Manning. I don't fault lovie's defense for doing the thing that got them there, but when it's NOT working, you got to have a plan B.

My favorite teams
Any QB drafted high by the Bears has had a lukewarm reaction to it. The reaction for Fields has been 100% positive.
